Item Description
Large 11.5x26x18" tall box contains nearly complete set by A.C. Gilbert Co. ©1965 Glidrose Productions Ltd. Front of box has full color paper label and notes this as a "Sears Exclusive." Box has scattered moisture staining, but this does not greatly affect label. Top of box has strips of duct tape and box shows moderate handling wear w/creases and small surface paper tears. VG/Fine overall. Box contains elaborate electrically-operated slot car race course that consists of six main molded hard plastic sections to be snapped together and held by thin metal contact rails (metal tabs appear intact). Assembled modified "Figure 8" course is 34x51" and has scenic layout including lakes, rock formations, etc. which are enhanced by addition of two plastic mountains (the highest mountain about 10" tall). Course has many features and comes w/many small accessory pieces including seven trees, four long and one short fence rail, 11 trees, two boulders, six U-Locks, two poles (w/o bases), fuel tank, fire extinguisher, start sign, etc. Comes w/pair of 3.5" long slot cars - Aston Martin and Mustang. Mustang is missing rear bumper and has repaired crack to roof. Aston Martin has glue repair to front bumper. Fine/VF. Both plastic control units w/"James Bond" foil stickers present, one repaired w/screw/tape. We have not tested the set so we are unsure if it works but it does come w/original power pack. Instruction sheet shows aging/wear w/rippling. VG. All track sections show only slight wear/dust soiling. VF. Box contains original box insert and appears complete. Overall set is Fine-Exc. An exceptional James Bond item.
